Dreiherrnspitze

The Dreiherrnspitze reaches 3,499 meters in elevation and features three major glaciers: Krimmler Kees, Umbalkees, and Lahner Kees, forming its distinctive profile.

The first recorded climb of Dreiherrnspitze occurred in 1866 when mountaineers Balthasar Ploner, M. Dorer, and I. Feldner successfully reached the summit.

The name means Three Lords Peak, marking the meeting point of territories controlled by the Counts of Tyrol, Counts of Görz, and Archbishops of Salzburg.

Multiple climbing routes lead to the summit, including the Normal Route, East Arête, and Northeast Face, each requiring different technical climbing abilities.

The mountain stands at the exact point where three territories intersect: the Austrian states of Salzburg and Tyrol, and Italy's South Tyrol region.
